A constituent has contacted me to raise concerns about outstanding expenses, some dating back to December 2019, due to volunteers who work as independent custody visitors. During the pandemic there were fewer volunteers, and the remaining members increased their number of visits to cover the shortage, however they are now worried they will have to withdraw offers to attend more distant custody suites because they are being left out of pocket. Will you and your Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime, Sophie Linden, look into this as a matter of urgency?
